This sounds like a good idea and is a step in the right direction to get us talking about getting to Mars .As stated in the article tho when you start looking into the details there are none .This is nothing more than a pipe dream and Mars one will never get off the ground .The technical difficulties as one could imagine are immense. No where have I seen any of these addressed .Given the fact that they give no details is troubling to say the least .No sane person would sign up for a mission before knowing any of the parameters. I would sign up for a mission to Mars ,but would require details of the whole mission from beginning to end .Trust me this Mars one won’t happen .Too bad it had potential but was dead before it began. All I have found is a bunch of people asking the same questions and not getting any answers .Too bad we need such a mission to succeed on this planet to inspire another generation like the Apollo Missions did .

In reply to Melanie Simms.

I with you on that, and yes I did sign up for Mars One.
There are more than 80,000 people that want a trip to Mars now. They have talk to a lot of different group
for the tech support and that’s good. The ISS show how we can work together to
get things done. I love NASA they Rock. With the entire new Tech that coming out
I don’t see the problem and remember its 10 years from now to live on Mars.
Nanotechnology we be one of the things that will help with living on Mars
because how fast it is moving now, also NASA Desert Rats have been working with
a vehicle to use off world for years and don’t forget the Desert Biosphere Dome 1 and 2 for leaving in a
closed environment. The space race cost lots
of lives. We lost three astronauts in a ground test before going to the moon
and that not all of the people that gave their life for us to get to
space. I for one think they well do it.
Good luck Mars One.

@ Peter Swale – this pearl of wisdom coming from a convicted paedophile.

I think it’s a great idea! I wish them all luck with this endeavor. Individual nation’s governments are never going to be able to spend the amount of money needed on a project such as this. Also, the program is not guaranteeing anything. They’ve been saying from the beginning that it is a one way trip. So there can be no false advertising on that fact. There will be a million people ready to take this trip (not me though). We can learn so much more from a planet by actually going there. And the media event is to keep funding for the project going as well as to let the world’s population witness the event as well.

Good Luck Mars One Program!!

Whoever
they send to Mars be sure they are all Atheists, other wise after a
while bloodshed and war will start in the name of religion for sure.
